Q: 12
You host an application in Google Cloud. The application is located in a single region and uses Cloud
SQL for transactional dat
a. Most of your users are located in the same time zone and expect the application to be available 7
days a week, from 6 AM to 10 PM. You want to ensure regular maintenance updates to your Cloud
SQL instance without creating downtime for your users. What should you do?

Its A, not D. D (HA) helps for failovers but won’t avoid downtime for planned maintenance, while A sets a window with no users active.
I get why D looks good since HA setup helps, so I'd pick D for less risk of downtime.
D here. High availability should keep things running even during maintenance, right?
Actually A fits best, just set the maintenance window when users are offline. No downtime for anyone logged in during business hours.
Is the "best" solution here focused on zero downtime or just minimizing impact? If strict zero downtime is required, would option D (high availability) actually be safer? Docs and exam dumps seem to differ here.
